Avigdor Liberman has issued a warning about the potential for explosive drones to reach Israeli cities, as part of a news roundup that also mentioned a Hamas financier on trial.

Gadi Eisenkot and Avigdor Liberman held a meeting and agreed to deepen cooperation between their parties, fueling speculation of a potential merger ahead of upcoming elections.

Gadi Eisenkot stated he would sit with Haredim, following reports of contacts regarding a possible merger between his party and Avigdor Liberman’s Yisrael Beytenu, who has repeatedly criticized 'draft-dodging.'

Yisrael Beytenu leader Avigdor Liberman launched his campaign, stating he would not sit in a government with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Yair Lapid announced that more party mergers are expected soon in Israel ahead of upcoming elections, while Avigdor Liberman advocated for the establishment of a constitution.

Sharon Sharabi, brother of former hostage Eli Sharabi, has joined Avigdor Liberman's Yisrael Beytenu party, citing Liberman as a true right-wing leader.
